We had a home-made one of these at home and when my parents divorced Dad left it. He always talked about what a cool gadget it was and how he wished he had either taken it with him or had my Grandpa make him another one. When Father's Day rolled around, I'd seen these advertised online and thought it would be a perfect surprise for Dad. Indeed it was and he still talks about my awesome find even months later.
Now I'm left with topping the perfect gift as Dad's birthday is next Wednesday and let me tell you, I'm stumped. My Dad is non-materialistic and a simple, minimalist kind of guy. Of course, I'm planning on making him dinner and a pumpkin cheesecake but I also wanted to buy him something he wanted and/or needed. Dad never asks for much, so this is proving way more difficult that I had hoped.
I sent a text to my Bro this afternoon and asked if he knew of something to get for Dad.
His response....No idea.
Big help Bro, big help. I've got a couple more days to shop and come up with something but after month-end on Monday and a super busy week in general, my brain is mush. I'm hoping the lightbulb in my head decides to flip on soon.
